Googling:
ix. "Echoes from the Hills" is the last chapter of Karen Blixen’s last book about her life in Africa, Shadows on the Grass, published November 1960.

viii. from FitzGerald's translation of The Rubayyat of Omar Khayyam -
" 'Tis nothing but a Magic Shadow-show,
Play'd in a Box whose Candle is the Sun,
Round which we Phantom Figures come and go"

and vi. (still googling) are the "very shadows of the clouds" from the poem 'The Affliction of Margaret' by Wordsworth
